บท 73: Festival?
It's been about 2 days since the incident at USJ and the death of All for One. Kurogiri hasn't woken up yet and I haven't tried to look for Kyudai yet.
But I still had a lot of stuff to take care of. Rumi wasn't exactly pleased that she didn't get invited to All for One's death.
And, I guess I could've called her. But I was too worried about her getting hurt.
She may be strong, but she isn't anywhere near as strong as All Might. And she certainly isn't as strong as All for One.
I obviously wouldn't tell her about this worry of mine. She would likely take it as an insult. I'd much rather sleep on the couch for one night than start a dispute with her.
But I made up for it by making her some carrot tart. She may have said that she didn't want to eat too many sweets. But she quickly changed her tune when she smelled the dish.
I may not be anywhere near as good as Lunch Rush, but I can still cook some stuff. And following an online recipe is always easy.
Eri seems quite happy, not much changed there, fortunately. She thankfully didn't watch the television while the whole fight happened. I wouldn't want her to see something so bloody.
Her seeing Overhaul heavily injured was to help get her over her fear of him. And it worked like a charm. Nothing like seeing your oppressor strung up, dismembered and impaled into a wall.
It was graphic, but it made Eri realize that she wouldn't have to worry about him anymore.
I've also discovered what is holding me from taking an early exam. There are quite a few classes that wouldn't be found back in my world.
There are a lot of morality exams, and there are also a few new courses. Like 'History of Heroism' and 'The effect of quirks on society'. They will be introduced in the later years. And final exams will also contain questions from these lectures.
So I'll have to go to school when they teach those. I talked with Nezu and he was all right with me being absent in classes I already know about.
I will have to take a special test for each class I choose to not partake in. It's annoying, but a decent solution to my problem.
Nezu also had a talk with me about wrongfully registering my quirk. But decided not to re-register it at all. He said that it was better to keep it ambiguous as All Might did.
The fact that I could phase through attacks was already well known. But no one knew if it had any requirements. So Nezu said I should let the public to keep speculating, it created discussion and made me seem more interesting.
As if the youngest hero being called the strongest isn't interesting enough. But I don't mind. I wasn't going to bother changing my quirk description anyway.
But the teachers found it quite baffling, the fact that my quirk also made me invulnerable was stupid to some of them.
Like Aizawa, who said I should stop giving people heart attacks like this. Oooh, did Aizawa start caring about me all of a sudden?
After a bit of teasing from Mic and I, he just said: "If something happened to you then what would happen to Eri?" Well, I guess he's right. Being worried about Eri is a valid enough reason.
Although she still has Rumi, if something happened to me she wouldn't take it nicely at all.
Midnight said excitedly that I could probably escape from any restraint. Not even going to get into that one.
Mic was quite cool with it, he already got used with me being powerful. This was like pouring a glass of water in an already full bucket for him. Same with most of the other teachers.
Lunch Rush couldn't care less even if I begged him to.
All Might was just a bit concerned thinking about possibilities. Like what would've happened if I didn't want to get caught that fateful day? What would've happened if I became a villain?
Stupid thoughts, but it's not like he can help it. Worrying is in his nature.
Overall, the teachers didn't really react much to me being called a Symbol of Justice.
My classmates, on the other hand, they all started asking for autographs. Some were acting really familiar with me as if I was their close friend or something.
I wasn't mean to them or anything. They are just kids, but I didn't really bother with talking a lot to anyone besides my two stooges.
Yesterday I had both Naijeru and Shinso frantically call me and ask about my safety. Which is nice.
Someone else that called was Nejire.
She was also concerned for my safety, she called for Tamaki and Mirio too. They were all on the line asking me random stuff.
It felt more like we were catching up rather than a concerned call.
Apparently, they had all been trying hard to study at the beginning of the year, and concentrating on training after that. But they still trained from time to time.
So I decided to start training Naijeru and Shinso alongside the Big 3. Mainly because the two of them might learn something from watching me spar with the Big 3.
It's also been a while since we had trained together. Although I don't train a lot anymore. I've long stopped feeling the weighted clothes even at their highest weight.
My body is already decent enough, I easily outclass a lot of strengthing quirks. If I were to wager a guess, I would probably be as strong as a rear admiral in physical body.
I mean the type that you find on the Grand Line, not in the 4 seas. It might not sound like much, but it's not like I trained since 4 like most monsters in that world...
Right now, I am sitting in class. Pretending to listen to what Midnight's talking about.
Suddenly, her words caught my attention. Mainly because she spoke really loudly.
"I'm sure most of you know this! But in a week we will be holding the School Festival." I could hear gasps and squeals.
It seems everyone knows what the festival is. Shinso seemed clenched his fists tightly while Naijeru's 'moustache' seemed to dance around a bit.
Don't know if it was excitement or fear. But it better be the former, because otherwise, I will beat the fear out of him for the rest of the week.
Everyone wanted to shoot for the hero course. But I always found the festival a bit unfair. Most of the students in the hero course have powerful quirks(with a few exceptions). And they were also trained properly by pro heroes.
The general course doesn't have any classes where they spar and use their quirks in combat. They are clearly disadvantaged.
But I guess this doesn't matter much to the hopeful students in the general course. The chance to prove themselves was enough to make them ecstatic.
And I wasn't going to discourage them. It was nice seeing my classmates be so motivated for a change.
The festival itself sounds like a nice distraction. I will likely bring Little Eri and Rumi to it. Turn it into a family outing or something.
